Hi everyone, I am searching for birth info for James Hardy RHODES, b. about 1818 - 1820, d. about 1896 in Gasconade Co., MO. May have been one of nine sons. His father may have been John RHODES, b. about 1790 in Orange Co., d. about 1857. Any information that I have about John RHODES is family lore, no proof...yet. He was possibly in militia during War of 1812 in Norfolk and Fredricksburg. He may have bought his wife for 13 lbs. of tobacco! Great story, huh? The 1850 Orange Co. VA census index shows 4 RHODES - Pgs. 223A, 223B, 229A, 235A. Could someone with access to this census please forward me the details? Also, any advice is appreciated! TYIA, Vickie

Is this the John Hardwick who was a blacksmith? I kept running into him in the records, but could never connect him with other Hardwicks. Do you know any of his children, or his parents?

There was a Younger HARDWICK listed in the 1774 Tithables for Louisa Co., and I have assumed that he was Elizabeth STATHAM's husband. But as in your case, it was just a guess. What do you know about your John? Why do you think he had two wives or that he would have been married to Elizabeth STATHAM? Love STATHAM's other children seem to have married in the period 1758-1774. All we really know about Elizabeth is that she was married when her father wrote his will in 1781.

Greetings, I am searching for the Will of Joshua JOB who died Aug 1782 in Shenandoah Co VA. His will is said to be in Orange Co VA Will Book 1744-1788 . I also have that it is in Shenanddoah Co VA Will Book A page 394. I have written to Shenandoah Co twice and they will not answer my letters. I have been searching for a copy of this for almost a year now, is there anyone on the list that lives in the area that could go to the courthouse and find this and send to me for a fee?

Patrick Cook and then Andrew Steel. Other probable siblings are John, James, Sarah/Sally and Samuel.
